    Couldn’t have been happier with the food and service. The crab cakes were…crabby..with a light crispy outside. The French onion soup was classic, and the steaks were seasoned and cooked to perfection. The chocolate chip cookies, like the steak, were cooked medium but with a chewy crust. It was money well spent.

    Went on a Friday night. A little noisy, but about as expected for a Friday. The waitress didn’t talk loud enough over the noise, which was ironic, but not a huge deal. They sat us in the back away from the bar and that helped with the noise too. The food was great, exactly what I expected, and a phenomenal value.

    Each dish and drink was unique, creative and delicious. The manti, brussel sprouts, octopus and BLTs were crowd pleasers! Excited to come back. Staff also was very accommodating to my request of surprising my friends at dessert with bridesmaid proposal gifts.

    We had the four wines offered in the wine symposium and really learned a lot. We drank northern and southern Greek wines with dolmas and mushrooms and a lovely pita stuffed with feta and a lamb shank. Every fish was delicious and beautifully presented. It’s fun to sit at the bar and watch the chefs. Highly recommend! And Wednesdays are super busy so get there early! Lotsa fun!
